Great collection of books!
I had the privilege of reading Maggie’s Revenge by Jacquie Biggar and Dangerous Memories by Donna Fasano.
Maggie’s Revenge- When HEA Agent Holt went undercover to take down a known drug dealer and human trafficker she knew the risks, but even she didn’t know what it would take to get out alive. All Maggie wants to do is get her and the other women home and safe and if she happens to take down the men who have kept them captive all of these months, even better.
Adam O’Connor is Maggie’s partner and has been looking for her for months, but now he has asked his old Navy SEAL buddy to help. Frank is more than willing to help Adam find Maggie, but he doesn’t want the feelings that he has for her to shadow his responsibilities that he has for his ranch and all of those that are on the ranch. His feelings for Maggie have the potential to shake up his whole world.
Dangerous Memories- When Keira Rhodes wakes up in the hospital without any memory of who she is. To complicate matters even more is the fact that the two men that are at her bedside both claim to love her and being the father of her unborn child.
While Keira doesn’t remember being married to Logan she does feel drawn to him, but wonders if he is hiding something from her concerning their marriage. Kyle however seems too intense and she feels threatened by him and doesn’t understand why. Even though she wants to get her memories back she fears knowing the truth also.
I’m definitely looking forward to reading more books in this great collection!
Hide Her Heart is a wicked edge-of-your-seat romantic suspense that will leave you holding tight to the ones you love. The intense longing for love and the freedom to spread your wings is inherent in each of us. We all need to be loved for who we are and allowed the ability to pursue what we love. Otherwise our world will become a dull, lackluster version of what it should be. Our heart needs the room to dream and our minds need the stimulation to grow. When we stifle any attempt to move forward, we create a dangerous situation that will either cause the person to do something extremely against their nature or else wither up and die inside. Either course of action is reprehensible and cruel. Why contribute to the slow destruction of a person when instead we could be one who blesses the world around us with the miracle of a priceless gift unleashed to benefit all?
Amber McKay is a small town girl who finds herself at a crossroads in her life and is forced to make a choice. When that choice leads her to a nightmare rather than a dream come true, she does the only thing she can. She runs. When tragedy strikes her family, she makes her way home only to find herself in the clutches of an evil she thought she left behind. Nate Riley has longed dreamed of a life outside his confining town. His dreams lay in heaps of devastation at his feet and nothing can seem to save him. The only consolation he has is that Amber was able to leave and make her way in the world. At least he can dream of what she is accomplishing on her own. When he finds Amber back in town, he does everything he can to help her. Can Nick protect Amber from the evil that is hunting her, or will he lose more than just his boyhood dreams at the hands of another?
Amber is a beautiful character who portrays the heart of so many people. She is an example of one of those who are beaten down by life and feel that they have no way out. The problem comes when others who feel they are no better off than she fail to offer a helping hand. They walk away thinking that someone else will help when then that may not ever be the case. What if we are their only hope to rise above the circumstances the find themselves in? Can you walk away not knowing if another soul will ever reach out and take their hand? I would hope that all of us would be like Nate Riley and risk what we can to bring life and light to a hurting soul. Even a small act of kindness can revive a lost and broken heart.
Rachelle Ayala never fails to surprise and delight my heart with her versatile and fierce talent. I have never walked away from one of her books the least bit disappointed or let down. This story wound its way around my heart and brought tears to my eyes as I felt the deep pain, piercing sorrow, and gnawing disappointment that Amber had to walk through. Life sometimes leads us through dark and bitter times before it brings us to the incredible gift waiting for us that we could only appreciate after knowing what it was like to live without it. This was the journey that Amber and most of us find waiting for us along the way. Only by walking through the darkness can we truly appreciate the light.
